Healthy for Kids and the Environment
Join Mar Vista Community Council, Mar Vista Farmers Market &
Los Angeles Costume Swap for a GREEN-o-ween Event on
Sunday October 9
Mar Vista Farmers Market at the MVCC Green Tent
9:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Traditional Halloween colors may be orange and black, but it's okay to add a bit of GREEN.Halloween costumes are big business for both for kids and adults. Rather than buy a one-time Halloween costume and then place it in storage until it's thrown away, try swapping it!
Swap, Not Shop!
Kids and adults will get the chance to swap new-to-them costumes --
saving money and the environment -- instead of buying new ones
that often contain unsafe materials and end up in landfills.
Bring a costume, swap a costume.
Bring 3, swap 2 and donate 1 to a local homeless child or teenager.
The nationwide Costume Swaps will help reduce landfills by 6200 tons. . .and that's only if half the kids in America swapped costumes!
Free Samples!
We advocate crafting, books, safe toys and healthy or sugar-free trick-or-treat items in place of candy. There will be activities for the entire family to enjoy throughout the day.
Pirates, Face Painting, Masquerade troupe, Speakers, Resources and a Trashion Show!
Los Angeles Costume Swap is a non-profit group whose goal is to help children learn to embrace their imagination and celebrate what is healthy for both themselves and the planet. More information here
